    This is similar to what I had in mind for the wizards.  There would be
    certain levels of wizarship.  For example, graduate wizards and
    administrative wizards.  The graduate wizards may elect to use their
    wizard bit to practice their programming skills, build, fix bugs, etc.  The
    administrative wizards would review the builders and programmers' work
    and `graduate' them to the next level.  Certain graduate wizards may be
    given the authority to do administrative tasks if they show interest in it.
